We start off with the news that Blair (Leighton Meester) and Chuck (Ed Westwick) have not left their rooms for days. Attempts from good cop Nate (Chace Crawford) and leggy cop Serena (Blake Lively) to get them to reconcile are to no avail. Thankfully, Dorota's parents are coming, so a big "traditional" wedding needs to be set up pronto, a wedding that must feature a "happy couple" to walk Dorota down the aisle for good luck. The happy couple, at least in the Gossip Girl universe, is Mister Chuck and Miss Blair.
Unfortunately for Chuck, Vanya's inspired little speech about Dorota bringing out the best version of himself really got to Blair, who, very uncharacteristically, realizes that she wants "real" love and "pure" love and "simple" love. If you've seen at least a single Gossip Girl episode, "pure" isn't how you'd describe Chuck and Blair's relationship, unless you call trading off your girlfriend for your hotel "pure."
Alas, Blair's quest for happiness has convinced her to once and for all ditch Chuck and his schemes. Won't she get bored? She answered that, too: "Better bored than ashamed of myself." Oh, B. We have to admit, we have never seen this side of you; but you haven't had a heart-to-heart with Dan, much less dance with him either, so we know it's a crazy night for you. And all while Meester's song "Your Love's a Drug" plays in the background.
Cut to Serena, whose breakfast with the Humphreys and their waffles turns out to be a little covert rendezvous with Carter, who's helping her find her dad, Billy Baldwin. When will she ever learn? This lie quickly blows up in her face, when Chuck tells Nate that his girlfriend was spotted with Carter, something he confirms himself when he bumps into Jenny, who is way too happy to break the news to him.
This escalates into a full-blown issue when Serena hops into the limo with Carter to Palm Springs where her dad is, and Jenny not so discreetly lets it slip to Nate. Not that S is being unfaithful. Upon discovering that Carter booked the flights a week ago and was just using it to get close to her, she kicks him out of the limo and proceeds by herself.
The dutiful girlfriend that she is, she takes the time to call Nate to tell him that she loves him and promises no more lies. You get three guesses as to who answered the phone and didn't give Nate the message ... but you only need one.
